How to infuse vodka

To make these festive Halloween drinks, infusing vodka is key. This is basically where you’re adding the flavor of the candy to the vodka to make the candy-inspired martinis. Want to take things up a little further and put on a fun show? Try these Jello shots in a syringe!

While you’ll be changing out the type of candy used depending on the Halloween drink recipe that you pick, the basics to infuse vodka are the same. 

Combine the candy with the vodka, and then store it in an airtight container. It needs to stay in that container for at least 3 hours. Strain and then use the vodka for the martini recipes. 

Pro Tips 

• Chop up the candy before adding it to the vodka. It just makes it easier to store that way. 
• If you want to really spice up your night, you can actually eat the candy that’s been soaking in the vodka. Be warned – it’s STRONG.
• If you want to wait until after Halloween to make this martini, use the leftover candy from the kid’s trick-or-treating! 

Variations 

As you can probably guess, this recipe for making Halloween martinis can be used with any type of candy. Twizzlers, candy corn, skittles….you name it! 

How to store 

Since it takes a bit to infuse vodka, you can make it ahead of time and then store it for later. I would keep it stored in an airtight container in the fridge for the best results.
